Abstract

See full text

A method includes forming a polymer layer covering a metal via in a wafer, grooving the wafer to form a trench, wherein the trench extends from a top surface of the polymer layer into the wafer, and performing a die-saw on the wafer to separate the wafer into a plurality of device dies. A kerf passes through the trench. One of the device dies is placed over a carrier. An encapsulating material is dispensed over and around the device die. The method further includes pressing and curing the encapsulating material. After the encapsulating material is cured, a sidewall of the polymer layer is tilted. A planarization is performed on the encapsulating material until the polymer layer and the metal via are exposed. A redistribution line is formed over and electrically coupled to the metal via.
